You were talking about *people* being hyped. Dont try and twist it matey...You know the difference from trying to create hype and people being hyped, so dont be silly now eh.

I didnt read the rest of your post, because just like your signature, I know which camp you are sitting in, and why this dictates how you post.

Nope, go read my first post in this thread. I simply said the game had hype and that's accurate. I never said people were hyped for it. Furthermore, if you search "hype" in this thread you'll see I'm not the only person with that thought.

You misinterpreted the way I used the word “hype.” No need to argue about it.

 

I've re-read your post and to be honest, it's badly written english. I don't know where you are from, so perhaps English isnt your first language?

But if you had said Sony tried to generate hype, the context of your message would have been clear, but your sentence was talking about users were given few options and the game was hyped, so the context of your sentence is that users hyped it.

Sony will of course try to "promote" their game to generate hype. But regardless the hype generated by Sony (which is reflected by the lack of hype of the PS4 users) suggests there was no or little hype. 

I also find it funny that in your own "flame bait" signature you have a metacritic picture of Knack and it's score... so I think we can say reviewers on the whole were not hyped by the Sony hype. So either way there was very little hype...lol.

Ultimately knack will probably sell a million copies, which isnt bad for a game derided by reviewers and some of the community, while other games will sell much better, not really big news, especially when the console it's being sold on has already overtaken the competitors console sales in a matter of days in some markets and will overtake it lifetime this year.
